It will uo doubt surprise many of even the oldest settlers of this city to learn that over sixty years ago stone wus quar- ried from the limestone ledge-s bordering on the shores of Sturgeon Bay and that the material was used in the construction of the first harbor built by the government on Lake Michigan. This, however, is a fact, and J . E. Defaut,, a resident of this city at the present time, was employed on one'of the schooners engaged in freight- ing the stone.

The Counterfeit a Very Poor One but It Went In Some Places—United States Mar- shal Wlswell After the Fellow. A. warrant has been issued for the arrest of/Albert Altmeier, he being charged with having passed counterfeit money upon several of our merchants. An attempt to serve the paper was made by Sheriff Thorp on Tuesday, but the fellow could not be found, having left for his home in Kewau- nee county on Monday. Altmeier, who is a young man, has been working in the vicinity of Voseville, and it is claimed by parties there that he has been quite suc- cessful in \"shoving the queer\" in that lo- cality. The spurious coins are a very poor imi- tation of bur silver dollars being apparent- ly made of lead. They look bright and new but have an unmistakably leaden ap- pearance and \"ring.\" A.
